Cool! I don't collect stamps, but I think I'll pick up enough of those to cover my mailings for months to come.

If you check ebay, they have a bunch of special release's of the stamp, like posted marked from hawaii on day of release. they nice but expensive. i'd like to p/u a set soon. :)

The Huntington Beach Surf Museum has their envelope with Duke stamp cancelled in Surf City on the 25th of August (the day after the Duke's birthday on the 24th and the first mainland release date) for $5.

USPS currently has a 32 cent "Aloha shirts" stamp.
